New Faux Tin Tile Pattern and Color Series

Pier One to Pottery Barn Trunk Makeover

A client brought in this Pier One trunk/coffee table to be painted. They wanted the finished product to be in the style of Pottery Barn furniture. The result was just what they envisioned. Now this updated, custom painted trunk/coffee table is ready to go back home and give them years of service.

Another collection of faux tin tiles in the making. Did you see the previous set in dark shades of grey?

This collection is going to be lighter shades. The dark grey embossing paste was the same though but it is a new tile pattern stencil.

I love the more swirly look of this stencil. The first full coverage color is Cece Caldwell paint's parchment. See it on a cute corner cabinet here.

Layers of color went on next including House & Canvas angora white, Fusion Mineral Paint's little lamb and FAT paint in robin's egg blue added to two of the 3. (above right)

After all layers dried, Daddy Vans orange scented clear wax was brushed on to seal all the layers.

A silver glaze was brushed over once the wax dried

Then to make the raised embossing pop, Daddy Vans cafe noir wax (shadow black was added to the grey tile) was brushed on to give detail and dimension.
